Our bride and groom began the day by getting ready with their wedding party. Veronica and her bridesmaids got ready in fun matching robes, capturing a few photos together. The ladies’ hair and makeup were done by Destiny and Light Salon and Spa, and their bouquets were arranged by Raining Roses. Meanwhile, Tom’s groomsmen got dressed in classic black tuxes, with Tom himself making a statement in a snazzy plaid coat.
Veronica and Tom then met for their first look. It’s always a joy to when the soon-to-be-newlyweds see each other for the first time, and this was no different. Tom and Veronica were clearly full of joy and excitement for their day upon seeing each other.
As guests arrived for the ceremony, they were greeted by a gorgeous outdoor setup and a glass of champagne. To add a fun touch, each glass of champagne had a swizzle stick of rock candy! The aisle was decorated by a beautiful runner of flower petals, and chandeliers glowed from the treetops above.
Once the guests had taken their seats, the ceremony began. Veronica joined Tom at the end of the aisle, they shared their vows and exchanged rings, and soon enough they were kissing for the first time as husband and wife! The two made their exit, excited to begin the reception.
The reception was held in a glass tent outdoors. Chandeliers hung once again from the ceiling, and each table held multitudes of glowing candles. The cake from Sprinkles Custom Cakes was a masterpiece, with eight layers of white details and gold accents.
The reception began with Veronica and Tom making their grand entrance and sharing a first dance. They then heard toasts from loved ones before dinner by Arthur’s Catering was served. As the night went on, they cut the cake, tossed the bouquet and garter, and danced with their guests. Meanwhile, Erika Event Painting painted a gorgeous portrait of the bride and groom, a very cool and unique addition!
The night went on, with more and more surprises! As guests moved outside, the party turned into a New Year’s Eve celebration, with fire-breathing bartenders, circus performers, and champagne-shooting guns. Guests were also treated to matching pajamas to get comfortable for midnight!
The night reached its end with fireworks at midnight, an absolutely breathtaking and perfect way to end their spectacular day. We wish Veronica and Tom all the best, and are so grateful to have been part of such an event!
